Suggest Remedies For A Ligament Tear In Back
Hello, As per your history, it may be due to ligament tear As ligament has no blood supply, so it does not repair automatically. For that you may require surgical intervention after surgeon consultation. Till then for pain you can take tablet acetaminophen. Apply diclofenac gel or ointment locally. Heating pads will also help. Avoid forward bending and squatting position. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Regards, Dr. Shyam B. Kale, General & Family Physician
